Founder

/Alaina Drake

Alaina Drake has more than 13 years of professional experience in non-profit research administration, project coordination, and grant writing. Her unconventional career trajectory has given her a unique perspective and a direct, insightful approach to new challenges. Since 2011, she has been a returning staff member of the National Science Foundation-funded Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (now known as SLMath), where she currently serves as the Grants & Data Supervisor. She has secured over $34 million in federal and private grant funding in her career.

Due to the changing culture in the wake of COVID-19, Alaina feels called to expand her professional services beyond the bounds of a single institution. She seeks to partner with organizations providing life-changing opportunities to individuals; supporting the autonomy and well-being of localized communities; and/or facilitating revolutionary research outside the confines of traditional academia.

PROJECT PROSPECTUS

A Project Prospectus is a concise, visually appealing, high-level overview and introduction to your project. A one-page Prospectus is a great way to introduce your project or program during funder outreach, so your discussions with funders are more productive.

FUNDING STRATEGY

A Funding Strategy lays out our recommendations for the top 3-8 funding opportunities to pursue over the next 12 months, according to your project needs. We do our best to determine the level of competition for each prospect, ensuring your time and effort are not wasted pursuing grants with little chance of reward.

GRANT WRITING

We can work with you to pursue the action plan laid out in your Funding Strategy. We will research grant application requirements, prepare a budget and other materials, write the grant narrative, and guide you through submission for a stress-less proposal process!

Alaina has elevated my writing to be more elegant and efficient in wording. She is able to do this without losing my original voice. Her outside perspective helps see workplace strengths that would otherwise seem trivial. She is a great asset!
